User:CIA391/Homepage rehaul

This is a big project to rehaul the main page.

Drafts

• Current
• Draft 1
• Experimental draft

Ideas

• Add todays date as a banner tile, maybe tie it to another idea like the callender one.

• Smash Wikis Status system: An idea we could implement if we want to let regulars know how to deal with certain scenarios.
  • Status page

• Bulbapedia stuff
  • Main page
  • Focus on the bottom banner where users can rapidly get to the seperate areas of the wiki
    • If we did the latter we will need icons for each section (unit patches perhaps)
    • Halopedia - Archives - News - Discord - Forums - Twitter (Probably keep that out) - Fanon - International
  • Not a lotta images needed bar perhaps a banner flair.
    • Example

• Mario wiki
  • Make the news be popping with a unique cursor when hovered over. Really not vital thats extra flair thats not needed.
    • Main page link]

• Add polls. A lotta wikis have these. And we have the ability.

• Current title info
  • So if a recent title has daily events. Dedicate a section to that info. (Presumably automate it if possible)
    • After a certain time move said stuff onto the portal page so its still accessable.
    • Example Splatoon wiki
  • Version number and a link to the details
    • • • • Example Nookipedia New Horizons current version

This is more a site revamp so unlikely. But make the top of the wiki dedicated to the logo.

• Metriod wiki: Not sure I like this but push to the team

• Calendars
  • Put a Today In Halo thing on the wiki. Focusing on Birthdays but events also
    • Example Nookipedia Todats Birthdays

• Featured Fanart
  • While best suited for Halopedia news featuring Fanart may be nice
    • Example Nookipedia Featured Fanart
